I am not computer saavy and I need some help. I started noticing a few days that I was getting an unusual amount of pop-ups from my symantec software saying:
Scan type: Auto-Protect Scan
Event: Threat Found!
Threat: Hacktool.Rootkit
File: C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\netsik.sys
Location: C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers
Computer: ZORRO
User: Katlyn Griffin
Action taken: Clean failed : Quarantine failed : Delete succeeded : Access denied
Date found: Friday, March 27, 2009 11:40:39 PM
I ran the scan but nothing showed so I didn't think anything of it.
Today I turn on my computer and added to the new pop-ups (that occur maybe every five minutes) were messages from symantec saying that emails (which i never sent and were obviously spam) couldn't be received by the server. Then my computer began getting a ton of pop ups for the Antivirus 2009 pro software and the My Documents folder kept opening and I could no long access the internet.
I looked at some forums of similar problems and tried to do the basic stuff. I ran Malwarebytes and rebooted, and since then I haven't had the antivirus 2009 pop-ups or the my docs folder opening and my internet is back. Still, I continue to receive the original Symantec pop-ups and I keep getting an error message saying "registry editing has been disabled by your administrator" when i type "regedit" in Run.
here is the logfile from hijackthis:
